Question

Gerry understands that his personal list of vocabulary words has the potential to build over his lifetime, but his ability to increase his marathon pace from its peak at age 28 has limits. This suggests Gerry recognizes that development across one’s lifespan is characterized by both __________ and __________.

Answer 1

Answer:

gains, losses

Explanation:

The brain forms memories by making new connections in the brain. When a person is younger the number of connections in the brain are lower, this makes it easier for us to make new connections. As, we get older new connections can be made only after disconnecting the old connections. This seems hard to do in adults.

But as we grow older we have more experience living in the world which is a gain.
